1. IOC on win32Different C/C++ compiler with different host platforms

Here use win32-x86: MS compilerDifferent products used the different MS technologies

ActiveX(ActiveDSO in wavePro oscilloscope), COM(XStream in wavePro oscilloscope, IVI-COM in Tektronix oscilloscope), TekVisa (Tektronix oscilloscope) DLL could be used to integrate to IOC when writing a device support

4

1.1 Test IOC based on IVI-COM and TekVisa

Tek DPO 7104: Win XPEPICS IOC:base-3.14.8.2,VC2005,cygwin (gnu make, perl)Two methods for IOC

IVI-COM: Interchangeable Virtual Instrumentsseems memory did not released when one scan was done(withITekScopeWaveformTransfer.FetchWaveform Method )

TekVisa: as normal programming, add the tekvisa library directory to lib path and add include directory to include path in the makefile as follows

USR_INCLUDES += -I"C:¥VXIpnp¥WINNT¥include“xxxSupport_SYS_LIBS += visa32

5

IVI-COMIVI: Interchangeable Virtual InstrumentsInstalled IVI TekScope Driver firstlyIn device support, C++ must be used for COM technologyCode like follows

::OleInitialize(NULL); //before create instance… //reference IVI-COM sample::OleUninitialize(); // when done

6

Get waveformIOC running on OSCMedm remotely

7

Compare IVI-COM and TekVisaThe IOC used IVI-COM running as scan periodic

The memory will be exhausted and at last it will be ended with an error

The fastest speed of acquisition is lower than that using TekVisa

So IVI-COM is unselected

8

1.2 Test IOC performance and common win32 application

Develop an IOC based on TekVisaWaveform acquisition onlyVary the record length of waveform from 1000 to 500,000Vary the scan periodic cycle and scan passive

The minimal scan period could be 0.01 secondAdd 0.01s,0.02s,0.05s to scan menu type

Get the waveform continuously to get the average of acquisition speed

Amount of waveform acquisition >= 1000A tekVisa test program have developed using VC++ 2005

9

Test IOC performance and common win32 application

Curve and curvestreamCurvestream make OSC to continuously transfer waveform data as fast as it is acquired. Also it puts instrument to a talk-only mode and no response to other clients and other commands.Need time to stop curvestream mode to place OSC back into its normal talk/listen modeSo if settings of OSC seldom are reconfigured and fast performance is needed, curvestream is suitableIf settings of OSC are needed to reconfigure quickly and frequently, just as mode switch very quickly, curvestreamnot suitable and curve is better

2. IOC for Upgrading BPM DAQ software

Now beams of linac are switched to KEKB and PF twice a dayNext switch frequency is several Hz(1~2Hz)Final switch frequency will be 50HzSo BPM system and Feedback system will be upgraded to promote stability and quality of beam, speed of switch between KEKB and PF.

Init_record function: init for record related. In SPData, setup the OSC for acquisition firstly, such as channel selection, vertical value, horizontal value, delay value, waveform position, these setting also can be changed by client if not curvestream mode

sa_read function: get waveform, sp measure and calculate the sp data including position and current
